Bathroom Door Locks Derby
We have lost count the amount of times we have been called out to open bathroom doors in Derby with people trapped inside due to the cam braking and the handle no longer operating, this is more common than you would think because the bathroom door receives high usage and possibly used more than any other door in the property, therefore it's advisable to maintain this door in particular to prevent locked in situations. We are able to replace broken parts when required, along with servicing functioning parts to maintain overall working conditions, whilst we service your door we will assess the door as a whole in case there are signs of worn parts.

Garage doors often need the locks changing at domestic properties in Derby by our residential locksmiths, most cases when a set of keys have been lost or stolen this requires immediate attention because they house many valuable items and could be accessed without the home owner being aware.

Locked Out Derby
When our residential locksmiths are called out to a job which requires us to regain entry to the property, we will always opt to picking the lock with other non destructive methods first before we reach for a drill, real locksmiths hate the drill if truth be told, there is no pride in drilling a lock and by doing so causes a great deal of mess, not to mention you'll definitely require a new lock fitting which the customer would be billed for. This is an old trick used by fake locksmiths aka D.I.Y cowboys. Be sure to check the company details and ask questions on the phone, don’t be rushed in your moment of panic when locked out and fall victim to rouge traders, check website for registered company numbers and addresses.

We never ask for deposits or money upfront, the money will become due after the job is completed to our usual high standard. Be very wary of companies asking for money before a job has been done and again, ask questions, companies up to no good hate questions.
